Step 1: Skin Prep That Shows

Great makeup begins with great skincare. Using the 101 – MY DELUXE SKINCARE brush allows you to apply serums, moisturisers, or masks evenly, hygienically, and with a touch of luxury. This soft, tapered brush mimics the feel of fingertips while ensuring every inch of skin is prepped and product is fully absorbed.

Pro Tip: Give yourself a few minutes for skincare to settle before makeup—this improves grip and longevity.

Step 2: Buff In the Base

For applying foundation, 117 – MY FLAWLESS COMPLEXION is the pro’s go-to. With a softly domed head and versatile bristles, this brush works with liquids, creams, and powders to give you flawless coverage without any streaks. It’s big enough to cover large areas, yet still precise enough for around the nose and eyes.

Why we love it: It replaces multiple tools by blending, building, and even setting in one seamless sweep.

Step 3: Brighten + Conceal

Need to conceal under the eyes or brighten the centre of the face? Reach for the 184 – MY FLAWLESS MULTI. This brush hugs the contours of your face and flexes with the skin for smooth, undetectable blending. Ideal for creams, liquids or powder—especially under eyes, around the nose and along the jawline.

Bonus: It’s small enough for detail work, but fluffy enough to blur and blend.

Step 4: Lock It In

To set and perfect, we finish with the 140 – MY FLAWLESS POWDER. This brush delivers controlled powder placement—essential for locking in your base, especially in areas prone to creasing or shine. Use it with loose or pressed formulas to keep your foundation in place all day.

Artist trick: Press, don’t sweep, to avoid disturbing your base.

Final tips from James!

"Your complexion routine doesn’t need to be complicated. With four hardworking brushes, you can prep, perfect, and polish your skin like a pro. It’s all about quality over quantity."
